Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
One of my best friends had never even heard of ramen until I introduced him to it at like age 35.
I don't even want to think about my college and post-college eating options. I will think about it just enough to be extremely grateful that I was able to go to college and have had a series of good jobs.

trust fund baby! or didn't go to college! I mean, who DIDN'T eat ramen in college. Remember when it would go on sale for .25 a pack (limit 8) and you'd buy in shifts? Good times.

Yes and no. Rich parents. Has several Masters, from private schools.
I think my big grocery bill freakout in Athens came when I thought "since I can't afford actual food, I'll just get ramen" and found it was $2/pkg!
I remember that.
And, a woman I saw in the student union all the time who would bring in a loaf of white bread and then make sandwiches out of the condiment bar...mayo, pickle relish and raw onions.
Just thinking about it...nearly 30 years later, makes me queasy.

Well, me. Mac & cheese is just as cheap and doesn't taste nearly as much like warmed-over ass. (Also, I worked at Einstein Bros and then Starbucks, which meant I ate a lot of free food from work. Technically at Starbucks we weren't allowed to have free food, but you'd be surprised how many of those scones arrive "damaged" and have to be "thrown away"...)
Oh. A grocery store near me (in college) would sometimes have pot pies for 33 cents. Much more nummy than ramen.
Jr. year of college I lived in a house with five other guys. At one point we all worked at the same Rocky's (a pizza-by-the-slice place). Pizza for breakfast! (And lunch and dinner if we wanted....) It's funny how those of us closing the place would often make too many pizza slices near the end of the shift. Of course, it would be wasting them if we didn't take the extras home....

Me, neither. I went the mac and cheese route or grits. I ate a lot of grits.
pot pies for 33 cents
I totally forgot about those! Yep. I ate those, too. But only when they were on sale.

Once upon a time, best beloved, there was no ramen, and the poor student had to lean on popcorn, cheap soup, minute rice and happy-hour food. Also, in my case, Krystals.

And beer. Beer is nutritious.
There are ducks at the Student Union in Madison who subsist on a diet of popcorn and stale beer.
